Any student attending summer school will bring their device in for a visual inspection before they keep it for summer school.
Please ensure that the iPad is fully charged when returning it as it speeds up the return process.
MEDICATION PICKUP
As the end of the school year approaches, we ask that parents/guardians begin preparations to come and collect all medications that are in the school clinic. You can come in, starting tomorrow, between 8am – 3pm to meet with the nurse to get your student’s medications. Any medications not picked up by 12:00pm on June 12, will be destroyed, as per the PWCS regulation. We cannot hold any medications for next year and students cannot transport the medications themselves.
UPDATED PWCS APPS
Effective June 30, 2026, two apps commonly used by PWCS families – ParentVUE and the EZ A2B bus tracking app – are being updated by their respective vendors. The current versions of both apps will no longer work after June 30.
To be prepared for summer school and/or the 2026-27 school year, families are encouraged to download both new apps as soon as possible to ensure uninterrupted access to grades, attendance, and transportation information.
For ParentVue, you can download the version labeled “ParentVUE (New)” in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. You can also download directly here. The EZ A2B bus tracking app has been renamed to EZArrival. Families should search for “EZArrival” in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. You can also download directly here.
MOVING OVER THE SUMMER?
If you are planning on moving during the summer log in to your ParentVue account and complete the withdrawal packet located under the online registrations. In addition, please fill out a form using this link before June 5th. This allows our Registrar enough time to work on updating your data and getting student records sent to your new school. Contact Ms. Gouro at [email protected] if you have any questions.
Monday will be a “B” day.
